NITROUS OXIDE ( nos / n2o ) advice forum

about siome folk putting NOS on chainsaws. What a bloomin stupid thing to do, there dangerous enough alredy! (Don't intend to offend anybody)

Has someone done this? I can't really knock them as it's personal choice to try something I suppose.

You havn't seen the major chainsaw competitions have you ?
If you think racers are serious about racing then just imagine what chainsaw racers are like.
Ever seen a chainsaw with an expansion chamber ?

The athletes use chainsaws weighing anywhere from 55 to 75 pounds to cut three times through a pine log that is 20 inches in diameter. The competition is fast and loud. The chainsaws burn on pure alcohol. And a round is typically completed in less than 10 seconds.
I havn't seen one with nitrous, but i wouldn't be supprised

Haven't seen a chainsaw competition? Please Loopy! I'm originally from Wisconsin where the capitol of lumberjack competitions take place (Hayward). LOL

As you said I have never seen nitrous though. Some nice 2 stroke motorcycle motors though.

Nitrous........pah, just give it a big V8!

UNREAL!!!!!

We were contacted for a system to fit a chainsaw but we haven't had a sale for one yet.

You may jest, but I've seen a movie clip of a V8 powered chainsaw! Took two men to left it with a stretcher type cradle, but hell did it cut through that log!


AND

I had an enquiry the other day from a guy wanting to know if we could fit nitrous to his remote control racing pick-up truck!

if you look 3 posts up I have a link to the video

Missed it, that's the one.
Superb. Take a look at something and say 'I wonder how I can make it faster!'

Jus goes too show I live a very shelterd lief up here on the backcoast
Like the idea of a V8 chainsaw with NOS, or how about a V12!

Got a mate who runs a suburu modle on ethanol preety damn quik

V12!

Where are you going to find 4 big hairy lumberjacks to lift it!

Canada is full of them (so I'm told). LOL LOL

The smallest engine I made a kit for was a 10cc model plane that was going for the world speed record. I made a special valve that could be servo controlled and was smaller that the first digit of my thumb.

I knew if I mentioned it, you'd be able to gas it Trev

As big as you thumb? but were you wearing your Reverand Big hands like on the Kenny Everett show?

(that's a blast from the past for all those than can remember it )

Correct we can gas anything but smaller is harder than larger which is a cocept some Americans find hard to appreciate. ;-)

By the way it was only as big as the first digit of my thumb not my whole thumb!!!!

Dear Kenny E - RIP

Regards

All in the best POSSIBLE taste

How true!!!! LOL LOL LOL

Why good lord man! the Fordson E1A Super Major was invented for a reason
